Saint-Etienne president unsure over Zouma future with Chelsea set to pounce

Saint-Etienne are yet to receive a formal offer for Kurt Zouma - although their president concedes he is unsure if the Chelsea target will remain at the club for the foreseeable future.

Jose Mourinho is a big fan of the Frenchman and wants to bring him to Stamford Bridge, while Manchester City, Manchester United and Liverpool have all tracked him since he made his Saint-Etienne debut back in 2011.

Former Chelsea boss Rafa Benitez, now in charge of Napoli, is also keen to battle his old adversary Mourinho for the 19-year-old's signature.

Saint-Etienne president Roland Romeyer says he is still waiting for someone to firm up their interest in the player, but admits the unpredictable nature of football means he cannot guarantee the defender will stay in France.

He told TMW: "We do not expect him (Zouma) to leave. To date we have not had formal offers, although in football it is hard to know what can happen."
